Bio - "Officer Down started in mid 2005, Four people, all Ex-members from well worn bands, met up to have a jam. A complete mismatch of musical interest, but a bond that would last. Gammon and Alistair were still in the ominous metal band Rotting Tramp, and Will and Loz had been out of action for a while. So it wasn’t an amazing jam, but we stuck at it. Near 2006 trying to keep Rotting Tramp in the air had become tiresome for the members so a mutual “shake of the hands and pat on the back” meant that Gammon and Alistair were now completely focused on Officer Down. We then practiced for nearly a year without playing a single gig! Concentrating fully on putting together a set, to brake out of the silent scene into the local circuits. We played a bunch of gigs at local pubs to close friends and fly’s on the wall, Aswell as playing the odd gig further a field. In late 2006 we cut our first cd “Led By Lies Christians and Money”, recorded in Alistair’s attic by Shay (The Cunts/Owner of E.H.C Records) on his 16 track recorder. Now with a CD we played a bunch of gigs up and down the UK. March 2007 saw the end of the original bass player Loz. So we asked the guitarist from The Cunts Shay to step in on Bass duties.
With the new line-up we are now in full throttle and have since done a mini tour of Ireland, a bunch of gigs around the UK and took a trip to The Waiting Room Studio and recorded 3 tracks with Jim Turner which is currently our newest effort!
We have big plans for the rest of 2007 and beyond we have a load more shows confirmed including a festival in Latvia, and are planning to go back to the studio to record a full-length cd in September/October time. January 2008 will see Officer Down on their first proper UK Tour and plans to go to USA are also on the cards….
